why even have a family?
so heres the break down...my whole family is screwed up and theres nothing that i can do about it. my youngest sister has been a major problem in my family for a very long time now. Her behavior has been getting worse and worse and theres almost nothing my family can do about it. To start at some point, my sister has add which doesnt help at all. Her behavior is already confrontational and troublemaking and having the add makes her behavior even worse. Since I can remember my sister has been very nonchalant about stealing from my family. For years and years I have guarded my things when I am around her which has lead me to distrust many people throughout my life. Since she entered high school her behavior has become worse and we now know that she drinks and does drugs without any hesitation. Her friends are the worst people that we have ever met and they promote and even encourage her behavior. For a long time now she has not listened to my parents and lately when they have forbidden her from going somewhere she will sneak out of the house. My parents have tried every punishment in the book but because they are so lax with their punishments oftentimes they dont go through with them which gives my sister the impression that she can do whatever she wants. At this point she pretty much can. In the last year her behavior has escalated where she steals money and other things from my grandmother and the rest of my family. She was also caught drinking with some uninvited friends in my grandmothers house. With my grandmother in the house. With alcohol that she stole from my grandmother. She has also had an instance where she disappeared for about three days. She spent it with her new group of friends who are about 18 and 20 year old druggies. On top of everything she has a terrible reputation at school for going with any guy that comes around. Any guy that shows even the least bit of attention to her can get whatever they want from her or so we hear. I have been dealing with all of this for a very long time nwo and even though it frustrates me that my parents havent tried to do anything about it there really isnt anything i can do about it either. However, since the last time my sister snuck away from my parents, my mom has taken some action which i am glad finally happened. We have had a couple instances where police have come to our house concerning her but my mother finally took out a CHINS. This is a measure to in a way control youths who are repeatedly running away or disobeying their parents and things of that nature. My sister now has a parole officer and she is required to go to my grandmother's house after school everyday as part of an agreement. If she breaks this agreement or tries to run away or do anything of that nature the police could go after her and take her to child services where she could be taken out of our house. Both my mother and I hope it does not come to this but with the actions of late were afraid it could get to that point. When my mother went to court to get a CHINS and she told the parole officer about the people she had recently been spending her time with the person immediately knew who they were. All of this has happened and I have no idea what to do anymore. My grandmother has to hide her money and i am always afraid to leave my room in case she goes in and takes more of my things. The reason I write this today is because as I was in my room earlier my sister left the house. She lied to my grandmother and said that she had called my father to pick her up and next thing we knew she was gone. When I called my house she was not there and my father had not received any sort of call from her. Right now i hav no idea where she could be and it hurts to say that im not even worried. i know that she is with friends even though those friends are the ones who partially led her down this path. I do not know what will happen when we do find her and dont even want to think about it. I felt that i should write this because if someone is to know me they have to know what i deal with everyday of my life. i left my house and moved to my grandmothers house to get away from all of this but i cant. im all out of answers.
